Is there a way to get the docks we used on LP? I tried a few themes from the market but they just don't look right.... Wish he'd just do docks similar to LP.
Thanks for any info

Thanks but that's not what I meant.
I was wondering if there is a way to change the docks around like in LP, but I guess not. I see some themes that change the dock form the market, but they never look right. ADW EX is nice, but without the ability to change docks and have any decent swype gestures.. LP is still the better Launcher!
Thanks for the pic tho, sucks about the friggin 15 minute window for returns, you need more than 15 to decide on this launcher.

Yeah the 15 minute limit to decide on whether you want a new launcher completely sucks. Who can fully test a new launcher in 15 minutes. The limit should be an hour. I expect google to get some serious blowback on that.
Anyway, no, you can't change docks in adw like in lp. have no idea why adw has not added that feature. love adw for many reasons but its the niggling little stuff like that (leaving out obvious features everyone wants) that just annoys me.

I guess maybe he doesn't wanna be like LP, but the themes in the market are so generic and the docks that come with them look like crap. I love the transitions and a lot of the new features, but not changing my dock and not being able to swipe icons on my dock are major reasons why I use LP.
Oh well, I own it now in case things like that ever do get implemented. Thanks you for your feedback.

You actually can swipe icons on ADW Ex. If you swipe up on the dock it brings up a hidden dock that you can place icons on. I have about 12 icons on mine. You can swipe left to right on the hidden dock. I hope that helps.

It does, I'll have to look into it and see what exactly you're talking about.
LP tho, for example, I have the icon for my app drawer, if I swpie up on that it opens the Torch which is really handy for the late nights I leave my buddies place... long, dark, downhill driveway lol.
If it starts to become to complicated then it's easier to just use a widget, which is pretty ugly and matches nothing.
I appreciate the tip tho, I'll definitely check it out. The custom dock is a deal breaker for me right now tho.
If only ADW and LP could have a baby, that would be the perfect launcher

LOL. Too busy working on GB.
I'm not sure if he added it or I overlooked it.. but you can indeed change docks in ADW ex now!
It's under dock settings, there is an option to choose from adw docks (which aren't many) or from your gallery.. this is a hugely welcomed addition.
If your dock doesn't show right after you change it, just restart ADW.
**edit** I see now that he did in fact add support for custom docks.
yea i saw this in the update yesterday... glad he did get it added tho

Well, that's the custom themed launcher pro dock for Myn's 2.2, so maybe dig that apart and pull out what you want. Or just use the complete themed apk,
Myn's Themed Launcher Pro
Or are you wanting to use those icons for something else?
The icons are all in \res\drawable-hdpi\ of the apk if you want to pull them out for something else.

i'm looking for the app drawer icon thats in the middle of the dock. just took another look, because it's transparent, i didn't see the white squares haha. thanks
can someone pullt he pngs for me and upload as a zip?
I would also like just the dock. I like the way this looks much better than some of the other "word" docks out there. Please and thank you
Ahhh.... I've been asking around about this dock. I thought it might have been something like that. Is there a way to get a 5 button dock using just sense? I like many of the sense features, but have grown to love the more options available in docks.
Just throwing a guess out, the 5 buttons are a no go. Are they just "re-programming" the original sense buttons to perform other actions?
I don't like asking so many questions around the forum, but really try to understand as much as possible.
Thanks!
hey man. what you are looking at here is myn themed launcher pro dock. I am a huge launcher pro fan. I have ran sense and aosp and flashed this zip im going to attatch and it works just fine. It also themes the facebook, favorites, etc widgets with the semi transparent look. only downfall ive found is that you cant update it. give it a try man. On a sense based rom i flash this then calkulins remove sense and get great battery life.
its the free version of this:

Guys,
I believe that Warm 2.2 is the best rom available right now (IMPO) but the one thing that bugs me is the following:
I LOVE the five button dock with the text, but, from my understanding, the only way to get it is to install the launcher pro add on and when you do this, you loose the clock/weather widget I LOVE so much.
Is there any way around this? Get the 5 button/text dock and still have the clock/weather widget?
Thanks!

Just bought the new ex version of adw, and I must say I'm really digging those 3d transitions. Its in the market now, just in time for xmas.
Only issue I'm having is when I hit the home button I get screen previews that pop up on the bottom of my home screen. Other than that, slick.
Awesome! I just saw this on YouTube the other day. Didn't think the release was this close. Still has bugs to be worked out but otherwise sweet

I'll probably give it a try, but I really dislike the trash can being at the top of the screen. I wish there was atleast an option to have it at the top or bottom.
What bugs? I bought this earlier today and so far so good. Had to get used to new menu layout but other than that i dont see anything wrong with it.
Finally he added the "4D" app drawer. Always liked that. The new transitions are nice. Everything runs nice and smooth.

It has that option in the settings.
I did notice that for some reason my dock disappeared altogether earlier. But after a reboot it came back. I wish we could change the home button action since it seems to just show screen previews instead of going to the homescreen, but maybe Anderweb will include that in an update.

So I actually bought it and was poking around, and sure enough, that option's there Thanks for pointing it out on the forums though, I'm sure I'm not the only one who will be looking for that option.
Wish it would go "full circle" too so that when you reach the right most screen next rotation would bring you to the left most one.
Ah ha! Found how to change the home button binding. Its under gestures in case anyone else has this issue.
Anyone know how to get the Settings option back when you hit the menu button? It's gone with the new launcher. Now the only way to get to the settings menu is to access it from the app drawer.

Well, seems like they copied the idea of having 3d home transitions from another home replacement app Dxtop which had transition effects like months ago. Though I believe this is still better?
I love it! Although I've been using lpp for awhile now, and I don't know if I can go without the calendar and facebook widgets. I miss those so much. Also the notification counter that lpp is another must have for me. Can't wait to see how these both develop.

Eh, another thing to purchase? Not sure if it's worth it. Should be included imo.
EDIT: Well I tried it out...and it's buggy and pretty ugly...even the lpp looks better. Right after installing it, I tried testing it out. Sent dozens of texts to myself and not one popped up, and then it force closed. Definitely wasn't worth it. It was that buggy within the time of refunding so I just refunded it. Should be free anyways.

New widget options on long-press:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

}
When you are on a home screen and long press on a widget, you now see more options than before including shortcuts to the Application info and Market pages for the app. You can also quickly set up custom shortcuts using ADW’s menus rather than the standard Android process.
New app drawer functions on long press:
These new app drawer functions are probably the most impressive. You can now long press on apps from within the drawer to see a variety of options, giving you more control over the look and feel. You can also add folders directly in, plus a bunch of other shortcuts. After playing with the new app drawer for 30 seconds, you see how amazing these new tweaks will be once this thing gets fine-tuned and is ready for release.
sweet just downloaded..
out of curiosity AnderWeb (sc) still work on this?
for a beta.. it's very.. alpha or RC phase imo..

wow I am surprised this is thread isn't getting attention. with so many ADW users I'm surprised I had to stumble upon the beta 2 version. I have been looking forward to a skinnable app drawer launcher for sooooo long and I love ADW.
many people like Adw but as a launcher it does not have anything special. Lets say similar to Go launcher.
Adw has only cosmetic things. None of them are usefull very much.

I disagree with that statement..
second Hidden dock
adjustable column rows
drag and drop apps to the dockbar
probably more that i can't think of on the top of my head..
and to whoever said something about the dockbar background.. if you purchase ADW Ex it offers that feature to easily switch out the dockbar bg :x
Go Launcher is good don't get me wrong, (currently using it) just that only reason I'm not on ADW is cause my theme just works too well to not have the ability to have a looping theme.
with Go launcher:
* you can kill applications
* you can hide icons
* you can uninstall
* you can create folders
* it has built-in task manager
* it has built-in recent
from straight app-drawer.
Adw has none of these. But it has many dock backgrounds, themes, fancy colors...etc.
You decide?

With froyo .. you don't need to KILL any applications..
you can hide icons in ADW by creating categories.. and you don't need to go to a menu to make them show when you "hide" them..
you can uninstall apps from adw by holding them to the trashcan..
you can't have folders in the app drawer in adw but like i said before.. categories..
You can always access recent apps by holding the home button.. which I have always done.
As I've said.. Go Launcher is a GREAT launcher.. but don't cast out ADW that easily..

Uninstallig apps works the same way in go launcher, furthermore, you can also uninstall them directly in the drawer.
Accessing recent apps pressing the home button works as well, however, there also is a category for that in the drawer.
Don't get me wrong - I love adw and have been using it for month,but go launcher is really awesome as well.
Lets see what adw launcher 2 will be capable of.

I use it this way: the regular dock only has one button which opens the app drawer.
When I swipe my finger up the screen, the hidden dock appears containing all the docks apps.
I like that because it prevents me from accidently starting apps.

I just downloaded ADW yesterday (no, not the one attached here ... got it from the market).
Can someone tell me how the hidden dock is supposed to work? I have checked it, but don't know how to call/invoke it.

You choose open/close dock as swipe up action and when the dock is closed you drop apps on the bottom part of the screen.
Hope that helps.

Why are you here if you dislike ADW? LOL. This thread is about ADW beta and you can start your own hate thread somewhere else.
That aside, I've just tried the beta and really looking forward to the new functions in ADW EX.
stuntdouble has created a great list of apps, games and utilities but how about a thread for honeycomb compatible launchers ?
one of the things i love about android is the ability to use custom launchers .... however not many seem to work on honeycomb.
might be worth keeping this list separate though as launchers tend to evolve more.
starting the list then -
Launcher Pro - seems to work very well and seems to be nicely tweaked for HC.
VTL launcher - i believe this is being built specifically for HC and seems to be a nice start.
anyone found any others ?
list starts here ..

i just figured that compatible launchers would just be a slow burn thread
I added a couple a while ago, but tbh I don't really care much for them personally. Not really all that many updated for honeycomb. I think the fact that the default launcher works just fine has put off most developers.

Well you're entitled to your opinion ofc, but I don't get any lag with it on mine in 3.0.1. I'd say you've been installing badly coded apps that have made it laggy tbh if you had it bad in 3.0.1 as well. Don't know about 3.1 yet, will see tomorrow though.

Is there a way to take that god awful advertisement off there? Worst idea ever, like I don't know what Launcher I'm using, srsly.

yep. agreed. its not ideal.
whatever was the dev thinking ???
apart from that im finding ADW works great on the transformer. Would quite like to see whether the Regina Launcher dev manages a port - and the SPB UI looks fantastic ! ive you havent seen it i suggest a view on youtube !!
not sure when its likely to be released though
Tried ADW, but every time I try to resize an object, it crashes.

resizing is not something i do often but ive just tried it on a couple of widgets with no crashes ..... what widgets are causing you problems ?
Resizing works fine for me. Try to reinstall it.

So I've never used a launcher before this day. I always knew they had cool features but just didn't feel like learning a whole new launcher. In your opinion which one is the best? I will try any launcher paid or free. If it's free great but if it's worth the money I'll surely support the developer.
I tried GO Launcher EX and it looked alright... I guess, I put the Sense theme on(latest one) and it was bugged like ****, the menu buttons were covering the Sense buttons so I couldn't use them and it didn't even have the carousel effect, it just moved between pages normally. I don't know if I did something wrong(I even tried rebooting, still nothing), I just ran the Launcher and applied the Sense theme from within it. So from my experience this Launcher already sucks which brings us back to the main point of this topic; what is the best launcher(your personal favorite)?
I prefer ADW launcher. Small memory footprint, fast, does everything I need it to.

Does it have a good Sense theme? I'd really like to run Sense3.0 on the Charge
I really liked whatever launcher was included in GC 1.9.1.

I have been using Zeam launcher for about a month now because it is fast and no frills with an extremely small memory footprint at 8.3MB on the settings I am using (most likely not what you are looking for). I have also used GO launcher, Launcher Pro, and ADW. All of them seem to work well and are less laggy than the stock Touch Wiz launcher.

Not sure about Sense 3.0 (as I am not familiar with Sense), but I am pretty sure HeLauncher is supposed to be a Sense clone in appearance.

I like the stock AOSP launcher but hate that you can't tweak it or remove screens.. so ADW is a suitable replacement and they have AOSP themes in every color you could want

Having used stock, Launcher 2, and now Go Launcher, I can say without a doubt that Go Launcher is the best of those three.
A lot of people really like ADW. Is it free?
Go Launcher is and is extremely configurable. Check out all the preferences you can customize, then check out the themes. (Some paid themes and a bunch of free ones...just have to search for them.)
I LOVE the transparent theme combined with the transparent dock theme. You can apply themes to the GO Widgets also, which makes them look pretty nice.
I've been using Go Launcher for about 2 weeks now and have really enjoyed it.
I've tried them all on multiple ROMs & IMHO LPP+ is the clear cut winner, it's all I use now.

IMHO LPP+ ummm whats that?
I've been happily using Launcher Pro since I retired the stock launcher. Tried using Go Launcher EX (again) the last couple days, still don't find it better than LP, YMMV.

Launcher Pro Plus.

I've used AOSP, LauncherPro, ADW, 7Launcher, Windows 7 Launcher thingy, Go Launcher, Zeam, and more.
Go Launcher is by far my favorite. It has all of the bells and whistles I need. Well, mostly all of them. I never have home screen redraws with Go Launcher, either.

Not true, I didnt see clear in there.
I've used all the popular launchers. My favorite is MIUI, but that requires MIUI Rom, which we don't have. My current launcher of choice is GO Launcher. It used to kind of suck, but they make improvements all the time and there are many really nice free themes for it. Right now I'm using Windows 7 theme.
Go Launcher fan here.
